WRJ Delegation at the RAC Consultation on Conscience

Join the WRJ Delegation at the Religious Action Center’s (RAC) Consultation on Conscience, April 30 - May 2, 2017. This is the Reform Movement’s premier social justice event for leadership development, community building, and the chance to make our collective voices heard. The Consultation brings together major political and social justice speakers, thought leaders, and coalition partners, along with the hundreds of committed Reform social justice activists in attendance, to learn, train, network, and advocate.

This year, the Consultation will feature special WRJ program opportunities, including:

Sunday pre-Consultation morning learning session for women only, to learn about women’s issues, WRJ’s social justice work, and how you can empower yourself and others to advocate on these and similar issues;

Sunday pre-Consultation women’s networking lunch;

Workshops during the Consultation featuring issues important to WRJ women;

Saturday evening informal opportunity for those who arrive early to gather for Havdalah.

WRJ will be considered a Delegation, which gets a discounted registration rate of $279, plus unique opportunities to come together with WRJ women attending the Consultation.

***Women who reside in the WRJ Atlantic, Mid-Atlantic, or Northeast District may attend WRJ’s Sunday morning programs without attending the Consultation.

Women of Reform Judaism (WRJ) will host a pre-Consultation session, open to all women attendees, on Sunday morning. This event will be held at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City Hotel (right across the street from the Consultation’s hotel).

WRJ invites all women interested in women’s advocacy issues to sign up and hear the latest updates on issues such as pay equity, reproductive justice, and violence against women. Learn about WRJ’s social justice and advocacy work and how you can advocate on these and similar issues. Discover how to empower yourself and other women with information and skills for advocacy and organizing.

This session is open to all women. There is no fee, but advance sign-up is required to participate.

Eat, schmooze, and learn with other like-minded women at an informal, women’s only lunch before the Consultation begins. This WRJ-sponsored lunch is a great opportunity to meet and get to know other women attending the conference, and to learn about women’s advocacy opportunities.

The lunch is only open to women and will take place at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City Hotel (right across the street from the Consultation’s hotel).

The Union for Reform Judaism (URJ) and other affiliates hold conferences and workshops for Reform Jewish leaders and participants; these events help our women, and their families and communities, grow and thrive as Progressive Jews.

In its 100+ years, WRJ has had an illustrious history speaking out on various social justice issues from women's suffrage to civil rights. Today, WRJ continues to support many causes, including women's rights, economic justice, Israel and global affairs, and more.
